Having Trouble with Ormondo UML

Can't get a class diagram file built. I use the wizard, fill in the info click "finish" and it just hangs. I am going to try reloading everything - unless someone has a "quick fix". I already reset defaults and made sure EMF / GEF were there.

What version of Eclipse are you using? I've got the same behavior, but I was using a version from the 3.0 stream. The Omondo UML plug-in works ok with Eclipse 2.1. AFAICS, the diagram is made even though the plug-in hangs, so try to click Cancel and see if it's there.

Originally posted by Jim Rock: I am using Eclipse 2.1.1 on Win 98. EMF works fine. With Ormondo UML class diagram, I get the splash page and then a wizard that collects file name info, but when I click "finish" nothing happens.

It __may__ be a case that Omondo isn't compatible with Eclipse 2.1.1 but I haven't seen anything to suggest that yet.

I couldn't stand that plugin... Any plugin that forces me to code "their way or no way" is useless. BTW, how can you generate a diagram without building a diagram using their plugin? Duh, you can't. Unless you build a class diagram using their tool, you cannot take existing code and create the diagrams from scratch.

I've right-clicked on an existing Java package in my project and select UML Class Diagram (Ormondo Plugin). It creates a UML Class Diagram of all my classes in that package... although it doesn't show the associations.
